It aims to educate people about the signs and symptoms, reduce stigma, and encourage those affected to seek help. Raising awareness helps foster supportive communities and promotes access to treatment options, emphasizing that depression is a medical condition that can be managed with proper care. By understanding depression better, we can support those impacted and promote mental wellness.
